Local and Global relations between the number of contacts and density in monodisperse sphere packs
T. Aste, M. Saadatfar, T. J. Senden
The topological structure resulting from the network of contacts between grains (\emph{contact network}) is studied for large samples of monosized spheres with densities (fraction…
An invariant distribution in static granular media
T. Aste, T. Di Matteo, M. Saadatfar +3
We have discovered an invariant distribution for local packing configurations in static granular media. This distribution holds in experiments for packing fractions covering most o…
A tool for filtering information in complex systems
M. Tumminello, T. Aste, T. Di Matteo +1
We introduce a technique to filter out complex data-sets by extracting a subgraph of representative links. Such a filtering can be tuned up to any desired level by controlling the…
Stratifications of cellular patterns
C. Oguey, N. Rivier, T. Aste
Geometrically, foams or covalent graphs can be decomposed into successive layers or strata. Disorder of the underlying structure imposes a characteristic roughening of the layers.…
THE SHELL MAP: The structure of froths through a dynamical map
Tomaso Aste
The shell map is a very simple representation of the structure of foams, combining the geometrical (random tiling) and dynamical (loss of information from an arbitrary cell out) as…
